Please help us name our 2nd son!!

[theboysmum]

Please help us, my baby is due in a few weeks. Months ago we had decided on the name 'Tate' for our 2nd son, but we have since decided against it. Our surname is Brown, so I think this creates the possibility of some potato based nicknames. We are happy to use it as the middle name coz we really like the name..(and it's the only one we have agreed on!). I am open to any suggestions though. We are at a stalemate now as hubby prefers the older, more common names, and I prefer something a little more modern, but not too unusual or over popular. Our first son's name is Kyan
Other names I like at the moment are:
Luca - popular?
Declan
Rhys - too girly?
Caelen - too similar to my first sons name
Ashton - nickname ash, ash brown = no good
Austin

names my husband likes are:
Corey
Leon
Lee
Kobe
Aaron

Please help me. One name, two names, any names??????????
Thank you!

Not sure where you're getting potato references with Tate Brown. It's a nice name - modern, but it's got a classic sound to it. Easy to imagine it on a rambunctious child and a grown man. Ashton sounds good to me as well. I don't see a problem with Ash Brown. Sounds very nice.

I really like Rhys Lee Brown or Aaron Rhys Brown. While some people are using Rhys for a girl, the majority of the time I've seen it on boys. It's a great name.

Other suggestions:
Tobin
Jordan
Oliver
Colin
Henry
Ethan
Ian
Quinn
Levi
Ellis
Eamon
Nathan

My recommendation is ...

Kyan [and] Declan

... a sibset comprised of Irish names.

P.S. [If Kyan is a variant of Cian.]

[wootz]

Declan is my favourite of the bunch!

Thanks for your suggestions everyone. There are some very good ideas there. I'll put them to the other half and try my luck. This would be sooo much easier if I could just make the decision myself for some reason hubby won't go for that
